Synopsis: This is a cinema notice. Itchy and Scratchy and the other animals in the theater's audience grow annoyed with a duck talking too loudly on his cell phone. Itchy and Scratchy replace the duck's phone with dynamite, killing it. The meaning of this sequence is that cell phones must be turned off during the feature presentation of the film. After the explosion, the duck is a skeleton and says "uh-oh". Then, Itchy removes Scratchy's intestines from his body to write "Please No Talking" on the screen, which reminds audience to be quiet during the feature presentation.

Famous quotes containing the words kill, talking and/or bird:

    A wind has started a little whirlpool
    of sand where the carpet ought to be,
    and shells lie
    by the preposterous feet
    of that woman who frets me, annihilates me,
    O she will kill me yet.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Reminiscences, even extensive ones, do not always amount to an autobiography.... For autobiography has to do with time, with sequence and what makes up the continuous flow of life. Here, I am talking of a space, of moments and discontinuities. For even if months and years appear here, it is in the form they have in the moment of recollection. This strange form—it may be called fleeting or eternal—is in neither case the stuff that life is made of.
    Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    The bird of Araby,
    That potentially
    May never die,
    John Skelton (1460?–1529)
